A semiconductor die includes a semiconductor body, a transistor device disposed in the semiconductor body and having a gate, a source and a drain, and a sense device disposed in the semiconductor body and operable to sense a parameter associated with the transistor device. The die further includes a source pad at a first side of the semiconductor body and electrically connected to the source of the transistor device, a drain pad at a second side of the semiconductor body opposing the first side and electrically connected to the drain of the transistor device, and a sense pad at the second side of the semiconductor body and spaced apart from the drain pad. The sense pad is electrically connected to the sense device. A corresponding package and method of manufacturing are also disclosed.
